Summary

We are an R&D company looking for an expert in Parametric Sheet Metal CAD (SolidWorks, Inventor, etc.) to design a custom 14-gauge steel enclosure (approx. 600mm L x 250mm W x 200mm H). The design requires advanced press-brake knowledge, as the lower tub must be formed from a single flat sheet using a folding method to eliminate horizontal bottom welds. The lid requires a flanged seal, specific cutouts for compression latches, and a cross-break stamped pattern for rigidity. You must understand bend deductions and K-factors. Note: This project involves patent-pending technology. The selected freelancer will be required to sign an NDA before receiving the complete, detailed engineering brief, including precise hole placements and hardware specifications.
